> Why have a single database when we can silo our data across 200 mini databases?
First, many orgs using, say, Kubernetes still run their database separately in a traditional way with replicas etc. Second, those who do run their DB inside Kubernetes, probably using an operator, gain scalability and additional resiliency (it also depends on the DB, but these days even PostgreSQL operator works quite reliably).
